The Cosmic Vision Defined 15-31
1 Gita Sloka every day - Chapter 11 - Viswarupa Darsana Yoga - Sloka 29
Yatha pradiptam jwalanam patanga vishanti nashaya samruddha vegah I
Tathaiva nashaya vishanti lokah tava api vaktrani samrrudha vegah II sloka 29
यथा प्रदीप्तं ज्वलनाम् पतङ्गा विशन्ति नाशाय समृद्ध वेगाः I
तथैव नाशाय विशन्ति लोकाः तव अपि वक्त्राणि समृद्ध वेगाः I I श्लोक 29
As moths rush headlong into a blazing fire for destruction, so do these creatures hurriedly speed into your mouths for their destruction.
Though merged in the ocean, the waters of the rivers continue to play their parts in the cosmic function. Where as. as moths rush only to perish in the blazing fire, these multitudes are marching into the coming conflagration for their destruction which has become a cosmic necessity. But their redemption lies in their being reborn with a change of attitude.
